Course Overview

Foundation Year (Kindergarten in NSW & ACT, Prep in Vic & QLD, Pre Primary in WA, Reception in SA, Transition in NT) offers a gentle start to formal learning. Children begin to read, write, and explore early maths through a phonics-based and hands-on approach.

Learning is integrated across subjects, helping children make natural connections and develop a love of learning from the very beginning.

 

Foundation A Summary (Term 1 & 2)

The first semster offers a gentle introduction to formal learning, using short lessons, narration, picture study, and copywork. Children begin learning to read and write with  My Homeschool Foundation Phonics and My First Writing Lessons. These carefully sequenced programs dovetail together to build strong literacy skills. We also include our beautifully illustrated Tales and Rhymes Worth Knowing a collection of classic literature to read aloud.

Maths concepts are introduced naturally through My Homeschool Maths Foundation Part A, encouraging children to explore numbers, patterns, and measurement in everyday life.

Children journey through Australia’s landscapes and culture with Australian Book Traveller, combining story, geography, history, and art. Early science begins with Australian Animal Mini Book, nurturing observation and storytelling about the natural world.

Through guided conversations and picture study children cover a range of history, science, geography, art  and nature study using Our Wonderful World: Conversations for Children.

Poetry, music, and movement enrich the weeks, helping weave a rich connection of ideas across all subjects.

Foundation B Summary (Term 3 & 4)

The second semester builds on earlier skills with greater independence and deeper exploration. Children continue to strengthen their reading fluency and writing skills with My Homeschool Foundation Phonics Part B and My First Writing Lessons – Foundation Part B. We also include our beautifully illustrated Decoadable Story Collection with 44 easy to read stories.

Mathematical thinking grows through My Homeschool Maths Foundation Part B, extending into early addition, subtraction, grouping, and fractions. Science broadens into basic physics with How Things Move and a nature study of plants in A Plant Begins, encouraging real-world observation and hands-on discovery.

Social studies continues Our Wonderful World and Family Lines, connecting children to family history, celebrations, and community life. Picture study, poetry, music appreciation, and regular movement remain a joyful part of the curriculum, ensuring learning stays natural, connected, and inspiring.

Style of Lessons

At My Homeschool most of your lessons can be completed offline (reading from a book, doing a field trip, or writing in your notebooks) and some will be online learning (watching videos, reading online etc.). The majority of our classes require reading from a real book or paper-based resource. Writing exercises involve handwriting and many lessons are oral or conversation based. My Homeschool offers parents the confidence that their child is gaining knowledge, learning content, and developing skills in an age-appropriate way. This is achieved by presenting rich curriculum that ensures your child builds on their knowledge year after year. When using our courses from Foundation to Year 10, your child will have the benefit of a streamlined curriculum without overlaps and unnecessary busywork.

Course Delivery

Digital Version: In the digital only version, all resources are located on Moodle—a renowned online learning platform used by many schools and universities.

Printed Version: If you choose the printed version of the program, key materials will be printed and shipped to you, however you will still have digital access to all material which is located on the My Homeschool Learning Platform (Moodle).

What's Needed

A laptop or desktop computer is needed to use our courses. Access to a printer is also necessary. PDFs can be downloaded and printed for offline reading but other resources can only be viewed from our learning platform.

Our Philosophy

Our program development is inspired by the education philosophy of Charlotte Mason while also meeting Australian state registration requirements.

Registration & Reporting

At My Homeschool, we aim to make the registration (or exemption) process much easier by providing resources and guidance to support you as you prepare your application. However, we do not complete registration plans on behalf of families. Registration applications must be specific to each individual child and can only be submitted by the parent or guardian. All our courses includes:

  • An Education Plan offered in a format that you can individualise for your child;
  • A Scope and Sequence showing how My Homeschool reflects Australian registration requirements across each state and territory;
  • End of Term Report templates;
  • A printable week-by-week planner with plenty of space to make notes specific to your child; and
  • An online Weekly Planner, complete with links to all the online resources required.

We also provide you with access to our State Rego and Planning Course which guides you through your homeschool application when using our courses. We give you a shortcut to help you get straight into giving your child a delightful and robust education without spending days and days researching and tweaking unsuitable content.

Parent Support & Education

When you purchase a course through My Homeschool, you also gain access to a range of support and teaching resources designed to help you confidently educate your children at home. Our resource library includes guidance on homeschooling methods, practical teaching advice, and information about the registration and reporting requirements for a number of Australian states and territories. Whether you are just starting your homeschooling journey or have been homeschooling for many years, these resources are designed to support and encourage you. Parents can also reach out for support by email, book a call for personalised guidance, and connect with other homeschooling families through our exclusive members-only Facebook community.

Is this Christian?

My Homeschool is written with the intention of supporting families who wish to educate their children within a Christian worldview. We value the education of the whole child and encourage parents to nurture their children spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, and socially. While we encourage family devotions, we do not prescribe or set specific devotional lessons within the curriculum. When selecting resources we aim for quality and suitability, and in many cases the best available option is a secular resource. For this reason, not all literature will explicitly be written in a Christian perspective, however we have read and curated our content very carefully to still support a Christian education. Parents are free to guide discussions, choose alternative resources, and shape the learning experience according to their family’s values.

Additional Costs

Some additional picture books will be needed to complete the course. Most of these can be found at your local library or purchased individually. We also provide these as free online video read-alouds if you can’t access the physical books.

A resource list is provided with the course for stationery needs.
